Subject: [gentoo-user] [Probably off-topic] How do I find out what is consuming the bandwidth?

1 Situation: There's a LAN with a Netgear ADSL router... heterogenous OS,
2 including Gentoo, are installed on various PCs on the LAN.

4 I'd like to know what communicating IPs are consuming most bandwidth,
5 and to quantify how much bandwidth they are using... Ideally, I'd like
6 to see a real-time list of the main bandwidth consuming communicators...

8 Has anyone any suggestions? "netstat" is rather more basic than I
9 need... and "wireshark" is somewhat more substantial than I'd like to
10 get involved with. Are there any simple solutions?
